How to Use Selenium for Record and Playback | TestMu AI (Formerly LambdaTest)
Summary
The article shows how to use Selenium IDE's record-and-playback feature to capture user actions in a browser and replay them as automated tests. It walks through recording in the Brave browser (noting Selenium IDE's absence from the Chrome Web Store), running playback, exporting .side test files, and using selenium-side-runner. It explains how to configure exported tests to run on the TestMu AI cloud Selenium Grid with specific browser and OS options and how to view execution results in the TestMu AI dashboard. It also describes real-time logs and failure highlighting during playback, calls out limitations for dynamic or complex workflows, and recommends cloud testing for broader cross-browser coverage.
